Osimhen, Umar, Sanusi know Round of 16 foes today

Super Eagles stars, Victor Osimhen, Sadiq Umar and Zaidu Sanusi will know their opponents in the Round of 16 of the UEFA Champions League on Monday, today.

The Round of 16 draws will hold in Nyon, Switzerland following the completion of the group stage last week.

The eight group winners will be drawn against the runners-up.

Teams from the same countries cannot face each other at this stage of the competition, nor can teams who played each other in the group stage.

Osimhen’s Napoli finished second in Group C behind multiple champions Real Madrid.

The 24-year-old and his teammates will likely face Arsenal, Atlético de Madrid, Barcelona, Bayern Munich, Borussia Dortmund, Manchester City or Real Sociedad.

Sadiq’s Real Sociedad topped their group and will face any of the teams from the unseeded pot.

The unseeded pot has Copenhagen, Inter Milan, Lazio, Leipzig, Napoli, Paris Saint Germaine, Porto and PSV Eindhoven.

Sanusi’s Porto could also be in for a tough draw after finishing second in Group H with 12 points.
